Phone Operators
Give Fire Warning
Lytton, B. C, June 14 W
Three telephone operators who
remained at their posts while
flames crackled through this cen
tral British Columbia city were
credited today with helping to
save the community from de
struction.
No Injuries were reported, but
preliminary estimates set damage
at about $200,000.
The operators put through
warning calls to the city's power
station, some 10 miles distant,
and crewmen were able to cut
off electricity, avoiding the dan
ger of further fires from short
circuits.
The heroines were identified
as Murial Floyd, chief operator;
fctnel rerguson and Maian Reid.
Lytton is located about ISO
miles northeast of Vancouver, B.

Pastor Windle at the mike
of the confined and sees that
they reach their destination for
a hearing. In the same way he
transcribes portions of his Sun-
day service to play for those
who cannot come to church.
ONE-TIME OLYMPIC WRESTLER
Blind Pastor Leads
Flock Toward the Light
Piermont, N. Y. UP) One of the most active clergymen in this
' area is a young Methodist minister who is almost totally blind
' and wears a 36-pound plaster cast fastened down one side of his
" body. He is 29-year-old Albert
Windle.
' Windle can't afford a car on
his $1,600 salary. He walks to
visit parishioners and averages
better than five miles a day. He
' manages trips to New York by
memorizing subway, train and
bus stops.
The young preacher and fa
ther of four never has babied
himself. He was selected for the
U.S. Olympic wrestling team
while a student at Temple uni
versity, as blind then as he is
now.
Windle Is usually up at five
In the morning. Years ago he
started delivering communion
at 7:00 a.m. every Friday to all
Protestant patients at the Nyack
hospital; and he rises at 4:30 to
hike the distance on time.
The chief complaint against
Windle seems to be that he is
never home. One of his favor-
ite "leisure time activities" is
to get in a row-boat given him
by a church member and row
up and down the Hudson river
interviewing Dane captains.
Hudson barges carry everything
' from mules to coal and the men
' who operate them are not
known particularly for their
Idealistic view of Hie.
Undaunted, Windle explains:
"You know how a larger craft's
crew loves to yell down things
at somebody alongside in
small boat. I tell 'em I'm
Methodist minister and ask if I
can come aboard. We usually
end up with a worship service
'fore' or 'aft' since most of them
never get to church anyway.'
Every three months Windle is
taken by Nyack community am
bulance to a New York hospital
where he undergoes experimen
tal treatments. For besides be
ing blind, Windle is a victim of
Boeck s Sarkold disease.
Regular visits and long per
iods of confinement in a hospital
are no novelty to Windle. In
many instances the nature of his
case has demanded operations
.without the use of anaesthetic
the severe pain of which Win
, die describes very matter-of-factly.
Windle has written an inter
denominational communion ser
vice used extensively by most
Protestant ministers in his area.
He finds time to be director
of publicity for the Nyack Min
isterial association. Recently he
wrote a critique of Methodist
beliefs which has been printed
and sent to members of the
' Newark, N.J., Methodist Con
ference by order of Bishop
Bromley Oxnam. He originated
and conducts a religious radio
; forum and is called one of the
toughest sermon critics ever en-
' countered by graduate speech
.class alumni.
i
Windle also writes a weekly
newspaper column on religious
J subjects. His correspondence
and necessary reading Is done
' for him by 'readers' provided by
various Nyack women's organi-
' rations. Windle has to memorize
.everything he wants to use of
this nature and therefore can
Iquote with ease from pages of
biblical, ritual and source ma
terials.
The clergyman has a wire re
corder he takes to hospital pa
tients and "shut-ins." He tran
scribes "vocal letters" to friends
Moved From Silverton Hospital
Silverton Harve Smith, na
tive of Silverton, was moved
from the Silverton hospital
where he has been ill for many
months, to a Salem convalescent
home. Smith's condition was re
ported as improved.

'Howdy '49er' A century of progress stands between the
covered wagon of 1849 and the diesel locomotive 1949. Today
opportunity, progress and security are still our goal, Just as
it was for the pioneer who pressed on to California seeking
gold. The modern '49er is making progress and find oppor
tunity and security by regularly investing part of his pay in
United States savings bonds. Every $3 put away now brings
you $4 in 10 years. (Acme Telephoto.)
Publicists for
Farragut Here
Mr. and Mrs. Roger H. Hodg
son, publicity agents for Far
ragut College and Technical In
stitute, were in Salem over the
week-end. Mr. Hodgson is a
graduate of Salem high in 1938.
"Farragut is an unusual
school", he said, "as it has ad
equate housing ranging in price
and size from a dormitory room
at $9 a month, to a three bed
room furnished apartment at $29
a month. Farragut college is
located in the Bitterroot moun
tains on the shore of Lake Pend-
'Oreille, the largest body of
water in Idaho.
"The school offers trade and
college courses which are ac
credited by the University of
Idaho and credits are transfer
rable to other colleges. Although
it is located near population cen
ters such as Spokane and Coeur
d'Alene, the community is self
sufficient and dependent upon
the college for its service. Re-1
fiigeration students o p e r at e
locker and cold storage serv
ices. Automotive students repair
local automobiles. So the stu
dents not only studies the theory
of his Job training. He operates
a business serving the public."
Mr. and Mrs. Hadgson were
guests of his aunt, Mrs. Frank
W. Waters in Salem.
